The Community Service Division facilitates and coordinates efforts to reduce crime throughout the city by implementing strategies based on effective crime prevention. In order to achieve its goals, the Community Services Division partners with citizens and businesses, government, and civic organizations, and utilizes a myriad of programs such as D.A.R.E., the Citizen Police Academy, and the coordination and execution of the popular and nationally recognized National Night Out.
If you would like the Community Services Unit to design an individual program for your group, or ask how the Police Department can partner with your neighborhood or community group, please contact Captain Sean Quinn at 314-835-6233 or by email at
